LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 220 - Farmhouse
Xu Zifan was holding the paper. Xu’s father and Xu’s mother were afraid of getting dirty, so they told him and Xiaolian to go to the donkey cart and wait. The two of them went to sell bamboo baskets, hats and food boxes. After Xu’s father and Xu’s mother left, Xu Zifan looked around and said to Xiao Lian, “Go, third brother will take you around. I didn’t make any money this time. I will buy you clothes when I have money.”
Xiao Lian happily said: “Brother, really? Then don’t forget!” She followed Xu Zifan closely, her eyes were full of novelty, and she kept asking Xu Zifan about this and that, like a child. same.
Xu Zifan is very patient. She will answer whatever she asks, and when she sees someone selling candied haws, she bought a bunch for Xiaolian.
Xiaolian took it embarrassedly, and whispered: “Brother, I’m not a kid anymore, why do you buy this for me?”
“You haven’t eaten twice when you were a child. You can eat when you meet her.” Xu Zifan walked next to her to protect her, and said with a smile, “You should learn everything you should learn from your mother, and it’s okay to be a child next time. Brother can afford you. You have seen it too. Third brother is now copying books to make money. From now on, you can tell third brother what you want, and buy it for you.”
Xiao Lian took a bite of the candied haws and curiously asked, “What is’should be bought’?”
“Just don’t squander the things of the invincible, and you can’t be squeamish and learn bad just because someone is spoiled.”
“I won’t be squeamish and learn badly.”
The brothers and sisters were shopping while talking. Xiaolian’s eyes brightened every time she saw places like Garment Shop and Jumbo Pavilion, and she also had to look at the stalls on the side of the road. It’s a pity that a wooden hairpin costs 20 characters, and can eat two meals of pork. Xiao Lian can only take back the gaze he wants, and continue to look at others sensibly. Xu Zifan didn’t make a fat man with a swollen face. He really has no money now. What’s the use of buying a cheap one to make the family feel distressed?
He looked at the three medical clinics in the town according to the memory of the original owner, and got an understanding of the doctors and the flow of people inside, as well as the size of the medical clinics. When Xiaolian had been around enough, he took her to the donkey cart in the village and waited. They had been shopping for a long time, so when they got to the donkey cart, Xu’s father and Xu’s mother came back soon, all smiles, and the bamboo basket was empty. Because they were outside, they didn’t say how much they sold. They looked pretty good anyway.
After another moment, the people in the village came over one after another. Some of the sellers sold out, some left a lot, and some bought big bags, some only carried a small basket. Half and half. Xu Erlang and Su Qianyun came back with a full basket, but the pastries in the basket had become sugar, red dates and other good things.
Upon seeing this, Xu’s mother asked, “This is for sale. Why did you buy so many things?”
Su Qianyun smiled and said: “They are all sold. Tomorrow I plan to make some other pastries to sell.”
Others hurriedly asked: “The pastries look good, but they sell a lot of money?”
Su Qianyun waved her hand and said, “How can I do it? The gadgets I thought about myself can only earn a little money to stutter the children. However, the accumulation of small amounts will make a lot of money. I think I will come to town to sell cakes when I am free in the future, and said Maybe I can change the two children into new clothes.”
When others hear her say it, it’s hard to ask. At first, they think it’s nothing. Once in the village they see who makes fresh food and ask how to do it. They cook it by themselves, and no one makes money by eating. This person needs to change clothes for the child for things he is thinking about, but he can’t ask about things to make a living.
Su Qianyun was proud of her wit, smiled slightly, turned around and saw that the big bamboo baskets that Father Xu and the others brought were empty, and said in surprise: “Mother, are all those things you took for sale?”
Xu’s mother nodded and said cheerfully: “Sell it, the youngest classmate likes it, saying it is the elegant decoration that scholars like, so I bought all the decorations. Later, your father and I went to sell the rest and it was not very good. , But there are not a few in total, they are all sold out.”
Originally, some people wanted to ask about those bamboo products, which looked very novel, but Su Qianyun said just now, they naturally remembered Xu Zifan in the field that the family was stretched, and Xu’s family started selling hats. It’s hard to ask if you are in a hurry to earn money. Besides, they don’t know how to do this kind of stuff, and they are not so interested.
Su Qianyun was very interested. She saw those things, they were beautiful and exquisite. Wouldn’t they be cheap if they were bought by a scholar? Why didn’t they make bamboo products before they had this ability? She knew that she was working in the second room of the squeeze house. If it weren’t for the division of the family, she would still be Xu’s father and only make bamboo baskets. This made her feel very uncomfortable. Seeing the paper and book Xu Zifan was holding, she showed a surprised expression and asked, “The third child, are you buying a book? Why is it still a medical book? Is it useful to read by yourself? Is it expensive? You are not. Saying that you still have to take an exam for scholars? Why didn’t you buy a scientific examination book?”
The people in the car immediately looked at Xu Zifan. Didn’t it mean that the family was stretched and there was not enough food? How can I afford a book? That would cost a lot of money. These two books are estimated to be enough for them to live for two or three years. The Xu family’s third house is so rich? !
Xu Zifan shook his head calmly, caressed his writing, and said flatly: “Where is the second sister-in-law? The money we split from the family is so small, but we can’t afford a book. The second sister-in-law did not misunderstand his parents. Hidden?”
Su Qianyun’s face changed slightly, “No, I just saw that it was a medical book that was anxious for you, and I didn’t think so much. Also, we can’t afford a book, then this book?”
Xu Zifan smiled and said, “Er Sister-in-law is still literate? Did she learn at home before? Why didn’t you say it before?”
“I only learned a little bit.” Su Qianyun answered cautiously, her body tightening, fearing Xu Zifan would ask more questions.
Xu Zifan nodded, “It turns out that it’s good if the second sister-in-law didn’t misunderstand my parents. My parents have always treated our three brothers fairly. Even if Xiaolian and I haven’t gotten married yet, I didn’t leave much. I’m afraid of treating you badly. I borrowed the books from the library. In the future, I will help the library copy books to earn money and add an input to my family. I chose medical books because I like medical skills, I like to see doctors, and I want to learn more.”
Now other people are interested, “How much money can you make from copying books?”
“One hundred words and ten essays, but you can’t copy it wrong or dirty, otherwise you will lose a page of paper and you will be compensated.” Xu Zifan opened the medical book and pointed to the words inside. Ben is almost old.”
Few people were illiterate, and found it difficult to see it, and suddenly felt that the money was really hard to earn. They don’t know how long it will take to copy a hundred characters. Anyway, it will take a long time for them to copy. A book is not known to be copied until the year of the monkey. It is estimated that the money will be deducted if the compensation is broken, and there is nothing in their hearts. Envy, I just think reading is still useful, and I can find one more job than them.
Su Qianyun’s eyes lit up when she heard that there were ten pennies for a hundred words, and then she thought that the original Su Qianyun was illiterate. She said that knowing a few is barely enough, and copying books will definitely attract the attention of the whole village. Moreover, she has never written Chinese calligraphy. She has to write so small in the book, or the traditional characters do not have punctuation. It is estimated that she can’t write well, so she can only give up regretfully.
However, she was even more disgusted with Xu Zifan. This young man had never spoken, did not give others a step, and did not wink at all. Now that I just got separated, I found a book copy job. What did you do before? If he was so well-behaved and sensible before, she wouldn’t want to count the scorer, maybe she would give him a few words for him to be an official in the imperial examination. But thinking of the little uncle in her original memory, she also felt that Xu Zifan must have pretended to be, and she would revert to the old manner in a few days. Regardless of him, anyway, the families are separated, and in the future, I will still seldom come into contact with such people who can’t speak. It happens that their second room is about to develop, so that the blood-sucking uncle will not come up again.
Su Qianyun was thinking about copying books in her heart, so she didn’t answer the conversation again, and didn’t notice that Xiaolian and the woman in the corner looked strangely at her. Her previous reaction seemed to be okay, but after hearing what Xu Zifan said, they vaguely felt a little weird.
Su Qianyun, as the Xu family, don’t know the Xu family’s family background? The Xu family has always provided for Xu Zifan to study, and there is not much money. Xu Zifan has just suffered a serious illness and the family is separated. How can he afford to buy books? Su Qianyun really can’t speak her mind, or is she deliberately telling others? If Xu Zifan didn’t explain this clearly, others shouldn’t mistake Xu Zifan as a prodigal son? If you ever misunderstand Xu’s father and Xu’s mother again and hide a lot of money for Xu Zifan, it will be worse. So Su Qianyun is not stupid. Why do you ask?
Xiao Lian just felt strange, and couldn’t help but talk to Xu’s mother when she went home. Xu’s mother was very upset, and she was very disliked with Su Qianyun, but she still told Xiaolian to go outside and not talk about her sister-in-law and not to mention it. That woman has no such scruples. The villagers say that gossip has always been spread from east to west, and there are many kinds of sayings that can be spread with a little bit of trouble, and this time is naturally no exception.
When the woman went back, she talked to her mother-in-law and concubine. Every household is a family. Who still wonders about this? With that said, I feel that Su Qianyun must dislike Xu Zifan very much. Every time I mention Xu Zifan, I feel that Xu Zifan is very bad. But when they thought about it carefully, they didn’t find out that Xu Zifan had done anything disgusting. This made everyone prefer Xu Zifan. When they thought about the separation of the Xu family, they vaguely felt that the Xu family had been married for so many things. My second daughter-in-law!
